Fitness for transport in pigs: health condition assessments

This collection of 7 factsheets (2 pages each) from the IFS-Pigs-2021 series, version 2.0–3.0, provides detailed criteria for assessing pig fitness for transport based on specific health conditions. Covering locomotor impairments, hernias, lameness, prolapses, shoulder and ear lesions, and tail lesions, each document outlines evaluation standards, practical guidance, and welfare considerations. Intended for use in veterinary inspections, farm audits, and EU regulatory compliance, the materials support animal welfare standards during transport.
